Sacred Cycles: Yule Ritual · The Winter Solstice
Join us for an evening of ritual, reflection, yoga and reconnecting with the seasons.
Service Description
Sacred Cycles is a series of seasonal gatherings marking the turning points of the year. Rooted in the Pagan Wheel of the Year, the phases of the moon and the rhythms of the natural world, these evenings invite you to slow down, listen and reconnect with the wisdom of your body. **Yule · The Winter Solstice** We’ll gather for Yule as we approach the longest night of the year. The seed heads are rimmed with frost, the light fades early over the marsh and I find myself wanting to light a candle before I’ve even put the kettle on. I love making space for the solstice in the middle of December, when there’s often so much going on. There’s something about sitting together in the dark that helps me feel the year coming to a close. After the solstice, the daylight begins to return little by little, even as we’re still deep in winter. We’ll spend the evening with both of those things, giving ourselves time to rest and noticing what we’d like to keep warm through the weeks ahead. **Blind in Mystery** We rarely know what a threshold will ask of us until we arrive inside it. I shape the practices and rituals in the days before we meet, listening to what’s happening in the season and on the land, and leaving room for what we bring into the circle together. You’re welcome to come as you are and see what unfolds. **What Awaits You** → **Seasonal Rituals & Reflection** We’ll honour the longest night and the gradual return of the light through ritual, gathering around a Yule altar. If you’d like to add something, bring a sprig of evergreen, a pine cone, a dried orange slice or a small object that brings you a sense of warmth in winter. Bringing an offering is entirely optional. → **Yoga, Movement & Embodiment** Slow movement and gentle breath, with time to get warm under a blanket and settle into deep rest. → **Stillness & Journalling** Time to look back on the year and reflect on what you’d like to tend through the winter. → **Community in Circle** A space to be met as you are, in the company of other women. You’re welcome to share or simply listen. **Practical Details** → **When** Friday 17 December 2027, 7pm to 9pm → **Where** Jala Yoga Studio, Brancaster, North Norfolk → **Price** £25

You are warmly invited into a practice of self-responsibility… arriving with care, being mindful of timing, and tending to your own needs within the space. These gatherings are co-created through your presence, awareness, and consideration, with each of us contributing to a shared sense of safety, presence, and ease. When you book your place, you are committing to this experience and to the space being held for you. As these events are small and intentionally held, all bookings are non-refundable and non-transferable. If you’re no longer able to attend, you’re very welcome to pass your space on to someone else or let me know and I can offer it to the waiting list. However, I’m unable to guarantee that your space will be filled. Thank you for understanding that this is a small business, with care, preparation, and upfront costs woven into each event.
